Yeah, probably. There are a few things like “meconium aspiration” that would make a literal 1:1 womb substitute insufficient to give the baby a few more weeks, and for all we know some of the 42-43 issues are direct harms of marginal gestation. But I’d be rather surprised (<10% chance) if the optimal gestation-in-artificial-womb duration were less than 41 weeks.
